Roma Memorial University Scholarship Program

The Memorial University Scholarship Program (RMUSP) offers scholarships for eligible Romani students at the university level. The funds for the first two years of this program were allocated from gold looted by the Nazis during the II World War and held by the Allied Forces.

The Open Society Institute with grants from the C.S. Mott Foundation and the Remembrance, Responsibility and Future Foundation was the main financial source of the program for its 3rd, 4th and 5th year of existence. Starting with the sixth year, the financial support comes principally from OSI / REF with the continuous support of the Remembrance, Responsibility and Future Foundation.

Roma who are eligible for the scholarship are citizens of one of the Program countries and will have been accepted at state-accredited, well-acknowledged universities in their home country or country of residence, pursuing their studies for BA, MA or PhD degree.

RMUSP currently operates its Core Program in Bulgaria, Croatia, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Macedonia, Montenegro, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia and Turkey. For more information and the complete application materials, view RMUSP Core Program.

The Law and Humanities Program operates in Moldova, Poland, Russia, and Ukraine with the financial support of the Remembrance, Responsibility and Future Foundation. For more information and the complete application materials, view RMUSP Law and Humanities Program.
